Abstract

In this paper we will characterize the socio-labor, housing and community infrastructure conditions of vulnerable populations in Santiago del Estero, Argentina, under Social, Preventive and Compulsory Isolation. The results of a survey carried out in August 2020 by means of online interviews to territorial referents are presented, paying special attention to the ways in which isolation affects labor activities and income and the alternative strategies deployed and the dimensions referred to housing, services and community infrastructure of the neighborhoods of residence. The sampling carried out is non-probabilistic and intentional. Through the work, it is possible to observe the need to rethink the implementation of public policies for the generation of decent work, as well as to control the use of and access to land and housing, respecting the ways of life and habitation of our populations.
